This woman was afflicted with a rare disease: Persistent genital arousal disorder.



She was always horny, and always needed to orgasm.

Quote:

In November 1996 she was 23 and thinking about a career as a translator. She had a new boyfriend. He was older than she was and her parents disapproved. But she loved him.

Then one day, almost as if a switch had been thrown, she felt sexually aroused. And it didn't stop. It was there when she drove a car, at dinner with her parents, when she shopped for cleaning supplies.

Quote:

The only relief she could find was masturbation, something she abhorred. Gretchen had been raised a Lutheran and she did not believe that God would want her to do this. But to get any relief, she needed to do it almost constantly.

Quote:

One day at home, a few weeks after her hearing, Gretchen described her condition:

“The arousal won't let up. It will not subside. It will not relent. One O-R-G will lead you directly into the horrible intense urge, like you're already next to having another one. So you just have to keep going. I mean, on my worst night I had 50 in a row. I can't even stop to get a drink of water. And you're in so much pain. You're soaking in sweat. Every inch of your body hurts. Your heart is pounding so hard . . .

In reality, she didn't masturbate herself to death. She committed suicide as soon as her story went public, either out of shame or because her misery was so great (she had a history of suicide attempts).

I often wonder if there is in fact a hell, and if those who sin with lust might be forced to live as this woman did?
